I didn’t get a sense from Trae that he could be traded. He sounds the same here like any other interview. He actually looks very nervous like he don’t want to reveal the wrong thing.

i take this interview differently in way that it seems like to me that he knows exactly what deals are on the table but he can’t speak on it.

could those deals include him?..it could but I seriously doubt it.

I hope you are right and I’m overthinking it. Losing Trae would set us back quite a bit.

Aye @Spud2nique, I know I said I'd try to listen to nbaradio for some tidbits but sorry.  Ain' no way I'm listening to all-Knik radio the next few hours.  My ears can't take it.

I dreamed I was ready to support whatever happens today/tonight.  Then I woke up.  It's gonna go down at the Squawk.  I'm ready.

I was reading on the pelicans board yesterday. They also seem to think a trade is near completion between the hawks and pelicans.

all I’m going to say is…one of us (hawks fans or pelican fans) ain’t gon be happy soon.

what they want to happen is definitely different from our perspective.

If we get Ingram, I’m not going to be happy.

Hawks can’t bend over for Ingram and Dyson or something (ie the guy they want to dump on someone else before he goes to being dramatically overpaid and the guy who they dumped on the bench for the playoffs).  Need to hold out for Herb.

They say a good negotiation is where both sides are slightly disappointed.

I think my ideal outcome tonight is to figure out a way to get Donovan Clingan and either Ryan Dunn or Baylor Scheierman.

I also want Cam Spencer, but he’s a tomorrow option.

Conversely...I may be the only one disappointed if Clingan is the dude.  Or if Risass-er.  Or...take a pick.. Just give me this guy :

Gasp!  The more bad things I hear about all these projected #1 picks ( Only plays limited minutes, Doesn't want to be here, Can't hit a high % of his free throws, Etc.) The better I like Zach Edey as our pick.  How far back could we move and still get him?  

He's big.  Hawks needs size.  He's tough.  He stayed on the floor in the major minutes of every game.  He hits his free throws.  He can race from one end of the court to the other with the best of them.
